Industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) is an annual grown plant which is harvested as a multipurpose crop [].
Hemp probably originates from the temperate parts in Asia. From central Asia, it further spread to China, Indochina, Thailand, and the Malaysian regions [].
History of hemp
The uses of hemp were not limited to textiles; the plant was also used as a Hebrew ritual for death [].
Even though hemp has been used for several Millennia, the production and use of the fibre crop were the highest in the last three centuries [].
A fabric deficit, due to cut off deliveries of fibres, lead to a renewal of hemp during the Second World War [], the main reasons for this reoccurring decline were high labour cost, the introduction of man-made fibres, the association of the plant with illegal drugs, and the competition with cotton.
Harry Anslinger, Hearst, and Dupont had introduced the misunderstandings regarding hemp to limit the competition for Duponts new patented products: plastics, paper from wood, and nylon. William Randolph Hearst, the owner of the Hearst newspaper, spread the inaccuracies in its articles, which were acknowledged as facts in the congressional testimony by Harry Anslinger. The widespread misunderstandings and unfounded arguments about cannabis hemp eventually led to the Marijuana Tax Act [].
